This report presents the results of a survey prepared by the Global Compact Network Denmark and carried out among its member companies in Denmark, Finland, Greenland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden in Q4 2018 and Q1 2019.The aim of the survey was to analyse how Nordic Global Compact member companies work with sustainability and the SDGs, identify challenges & barriers they face in their work, and use the findings to strengthen the work of the UN Global Compact. The results are not representative of businesses in general in the surveyed countries and some bias towards a greater focus on sustainability can be expected from the Global Compact member companies surveyed.
